Twins 1.0 (Patreon)
Content
06.11.2025 UPDATE: Twins 1.1 Update is released (27th November in Public)! Read more about it HERE.
This mod automatically recognizes identical and fraternal twins among siblings of the same age in the households being played and give them unique features.
Twins status
Only twins with the same gender and which are similar enough will get the Identical Twins status!
In other cases, they will get the Fraternal Twins status.
I didn't make this mod specifically for two twins, so it works correctly even if you have triplets and more!
Special behavior
Some interactions (such as arguing about uniqueness and pretending to be twin) are available only for identical twins. You can find all available interactions in the Twins Pie Menu Category.
However, all types of twins can receive special moodlets while working on school projects together!
Special secrets between twins
Being close enough, twins can share special secrets and get reactions with the 'Share Innermost Thoughts' interaction. It's available if you installed Twins Secrets add-on!
This section of the mod is the largest: it currently has about 30 secrets that are available depending on preferences, character traits, lifestyle, career, and relationships. There's even a special secret for when twins are in love with the same sim x)
The twin's reactions (both positive and negative) also depend on the personality – I tried to make these secrets as close to your sims as possible!
In addition, they will not constantly tell the same thing to each other: firstly, you can tell a secret once every 3-4 days; secondly, already told secrets will not be repeated as long as the circumstances remain the same.
Right now, some secrets are available with Lumpinou's Relationships & Pregnancy Overhaul installed (specifically the M1, M7, and M9 modules). But if you want compatibility with any other mods, by all means tell me!
Iimitations
Keep in mind that even sims-generated monozygotic twins still have differences in genetics – and therefore I couldn't just take two values and compare them, so I added the required percentage of similarity of features and a minimum threshold for appearance to be considered the same.
Also, when life expectancy changes (or auto-aging is turned off), the sims may count the exact age of the sims differently, so auto-assignment won't always work correctly.
Plus, this mod doesn't consider hair, skin or eye colors – these parts of genetics are assigned different way, so it only takes into account face and body sliders. However, it may change in the future.
It may lead to assigning twins status for siblings who are not twins, or missing status for twins.
Cheats
Don't panic! For cases above, or if you want to cast twins, I've added cheats on sims. You can find them in the Twins Pie Menu Category with testingcheats enabled.
For any pair of native siblings (their parents should match) you can add and remove Fraternal Twins status.
Identical status cheats are available only for siblings with the SAME gender!
Plus, you can batch remove twins status via the mailbox:
It's useful if you have many pairs of twins in the save which you'd like to remove.
